York Travel Guide

Getting Around York

As York is highly pedestrianised, the best way to take in all
the sights and sounds of the city is on foot. Many travellers also
choose to hire a car, and there are plenty of major car rental
agencies around, but taxis, buses and trains are all reliable and
readily available. Parking tends to be expensive, and the streets
can be confusing for new arrivals. There are about 20 bus routes,
and the city is separated into zones, with the cost of the journey
varying accordingly. Off-peak day passes are available. Hiring a
bicycle is also a good option for exploring the city, as it is
accommodating towards cyclists.
